Selfeo – Highly Anticipated Super App From Giga Entertainment Media – Launched For Android Market
Available on the App Store in December
Major Marketing Campaign to Kick-Off with Launch
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Giga Entertainment Media (GEM)
– the leading social media technology company that launched a
game-changing interactive digital distribution platform for Millennials
to view multiple content streams in separate adjustable windows, has
launched their super app, “Selfeo,”
the most immersive, elegant, simultasking app in the marketplace with
user-friendly communication viewing and sharing experience ever
developed for any digital device.
Selfeo is now available on Google
Play™ and soon will be available in the App Store. Selfeo is an
outgrowth of GEM’s original broader Viewer
platform, a revolutionary digital platform where users can transform a
single screen into a customized multi-screen viewing environment.
Features of the Selfeo App
Selfeo will transform a single screen on a single device into a
customized, multi-screen viewing environment with a simple, one-click
option that will allow users to immerse themselves into any other live
or stored internet video content accessible through the Selfeo app.
Creating a Selfeo experience allows each user to make their voice heard
and personality seen, whether it is commenting on the latest trending
viral video, weighing in on breaking political news, or breaking down
the highlights from Monday Night Football.
Selfeo can be streamed live to a group of users, broadcast out to the
world or stored for later viewing within the Selfeo app or elsewhere on
the Internet. Even as videos stream from separate sources, they are
simultaneously displayed in Selfeo’s multiple windows.
“There is no other multitasking platform even close to Selfeo,” said
Jarret Streiner, GEM’s Chief Executive Officer. “Every platform shift
leads to new forms of communication, driven by our desire to connect and
interact in richer ways. Selfeo is an imaginative and pioneering new way
to communicate, blending the simplicity of digital socializing with the
emotion and immediacy of live video, to make your experience spontaneous
and real.”
“Selfeo is an technologically innovative, broadcast experience that can
be streamed live, to a select group of users or publicly through the
Internet,” said Eddie Huey, GEM’s Chief Technology Officer.
“The app is designed specifically to meet the social needs of the
millennial audience, who embrace and align themselves with technology
that significantly enhances viewing and collaborative experiences. The
Selfeo app, on the Viewer platform, has tremendous capabilities to allow
for such fun features that engage them through audio and visual effects.”
GEM is in a collaborative partnership with iHeart Radio to reach its 75
million daily-devoted listeners. Selfeo ads will be featured over 10
times daily and will also see personal endorsements from iHeart Radio’s
top four DJs. GEM in conjunction with iHeart Radio will host a
nationwide contest where Selfeo users will be invited to make a 20
second Selfeo based on the topic of the day. iHeart Radio will announce
four winners each day for 30 days, with exciting awards to the winners,
including cash prizes and two tickets to the NFL’s Super Bowl 50 in San
Francisco, California.
GEM’s marketing blitz is multifaceted and designed to reach a broad
cross-section of the millennial market. The campaign will include:
-
The Selfeo Blimp will be flying over the Super Bowl and promoted at
halftime. -
The Selfeo logo flying over the Green Monster in Fenway Park, Boston
and on rotating signage behind home plate at Fenway for a year. -
The Selfeo logo present at all Boston College football and basketball
games, and the Selfeo blimp will fly over three college football games
a week. -
In the works: a deal with NASCAR, including the Selfeo logo on one
driver’s car, plus multiple concerts, billboards, public
transportation ads, and more.
